worldfromafar: (lost)
[present (and bendy) time]


The last few minutes of October 31st are clicking by, and even if Remus should feel relieved and relaxed that the dreaded anniversary has finally passed, he doesn't. There's still a pressure against his chest that doesn't seem to want to let go. It has been getting stronger with each day that has been passing so they could land on this particular date, and the years have taught him that it won't go away just because October is over and done with. It'll linger, because the memories linger as well. Years have passed, but time does not heal all wounds. It simply numbs them out so they can live with them until it's time for them to re-open once more.

Right now all the wounds are gaping and raw. Not just for him, and he knows it. They can't help it. It's what happens, when lives get torn and ripped to shreds.

Remus remembers. He remembers everything, even if he doesn't want to. )

[LOCKED]

Every now and then I get plagued with these...annoying bouts of inadequacy. I doubt absolutely everything around me, and it is unfair to those in my life because I am well aware that those feelings should not be given a second thought.

Yet...

Well, it happens. No one gives me a reason to think them. No one even hints at it at all - on the contrary, everything they do shows that obviously they do care about me, and want me in their lives.

Yet...

It comes with every full moon. It comes even more so on the mornings after, when I am too worn out to do much. With each transformation that passes my body is getting more and more tired of them, and all I keep thinking is that no one should have to deal with having to take care of me. It is a burden that no one needs. It is completely unfair for them to have to pause their lives for me, and... I don't know. I hate that it happens. I hate that they have to deal with it, and be burdened by it. By me. I can already hear everyone adamantly saying that I am not a burden, but I cannot help but think of it that way.

I am grateful that they do not think the same way that I do. There is just this...annoying little voice inside me, this never-ending insecurity that comes on those full moons, that wonders how long it will be until they do.

1. It's when we lost James.
2. It's when we lost Lily.
3. It's when we lost Peter.
4. It's when I lost Sirius.
5. It's when Harry had to go live with his Muggle relatives.

I believe it is safe to say that no, I am not fond of Fall. Even less of Halloween.
worldfromafar: (huh...)
What place do you find most peaceful of anywhere on Earth?
With my family. Always.

What is your religion
...this one is a bit more complicated. I do not...have a religion, exactly. I do not consider myself religious.

Is it satisfying?
I believe it is, yes.

- Life goes on, whether we like it or not, and whether we are ready or not.
- It never stops.
- What doesn't kill us makes us stronger.
- My loved ones will always come first.
- Goes along with the previous one, but: There is nothing I wouldn't do for them.
- Chocolate is almost always the solution. At least one of them.

ooc: Locked because good luck with getting Remus to vent in public, even about this. >.> In-game he has also been very angry, so that's why he more or less ranted. Even if others can probably guess just how angry he is about Peter's betrayal, this is for mun knowledge.

*locked*

...what is there to write about? )

- "All this is for your own good."
- "You want to get better, don't you?"
- "Not now, Remus."
- "Maybe later."
- "I got an owl from St Mungo's, there's a new treatment..."
- "You shouldn't get your hopes up, son."
- "One day you will understand."


24.2. A list of phrases you use frequently.

- Merlin
- Er..
- I suppose.
- All right.
- Well yes...
- Sure.
- Yes, of course.
- Well...
- I'm sorry.
- Padfoot...
- Prongs...
- For Merlin's sake
- I'm fine.
worldfromafar: (er right)
Remus blames the mun. The mun blames Dayquil. >.> So very very meta.

For [livejournal.com profile] makeyourlist:


Merlin, this is ridiculous, but...

If you had the chance, would you marry me, shag me, or throw me off a cliff?

Or 'insert your own option here.'

Have at it.

(plz consider answers screened to Remus unless noted otherwise)
worldfromafar: (silence)
Obviously I think it is.

Is it truly okay to do so? Honestly, I don't know. All I know is that, ever since I was a child, I have been an expert at it. Lies were just truths stretched to its limits to protect those I loved. To this day, they still are. It doesn't matter how it makes me feel. Someone needs you to be a certain way, or act a certain way, then you do it. No questions about it. You just fit that mold they want you to fit in. You keep them happy, and that is what matters.

That is always the only thing that matters. )
worldfromafar: (huh...)
((Just fyi, before I forget: I owe some tags for Remus but I'll get them as soon as I get to work!))

I'm going to describe myself in 6 words. Please respond to this message with your own 6 word description of me. Then post this in your own LJ and see if people can describe you in ONLY 6 words.

Werewolf that sometimes has identity issues.

... Someone who is horrible at this.


...

Despite everything, a rather fortunate werewolf.

...huh.

You do not experience strong, irresistible cravings and consequently do not find yourself tempted to overindulge, however you tend to lack energy and have difficult initiating activities. You tend to feel overwhelmed by, and therefore actively avoid, large crowds. You often need privacy and time for yourself. You prefer facts over fantasy and are more interested in what is happening in the real word. You do not like to claim that you are better than other people, and generally shy from talking yourself up, however you generally see others as selfish, devious, and sometimes potentially dangerous. You are well-organized and like to live according to routines and schedules. Often you will keep lists and make plans.

My mother was a rather religious person. She tried to somehow get me to follow that same path, but I never took it. Or, rather, I started to yet I quickly came to the conclusion that there is no real point to it. I didn't see the point of praying, really. I don't believe there is a being that decides who goes to Heaven, or who goes to Hell. And I do not believe there is some 'path' that one must follow to reach salvation, or that our fate is necessarily written on some sort of divine book.

Even if I don't believe any of those things, however, I don't judge those who do. Just as I have reasons to not get involved in religion, others do and I respect that. I can try to see things from their perspective, to understand, but for myself I always come to the same conclusion. I simply do not believe.

I just wanted to say thank you for all the birthday gifts, and the birthday wishes. I have been trying to find the right words to really...say it right, but the only thing I can come up with is the same: Thank you.

I appreciate it so very much, and I am very thankful that I am able to have you all here for it.
